O.P.I Nail treatments

I have been abusing my nails recently, having had really strong gel extensions for my wedding, and then removing them, and then having Bio Sculpture overlays, but then picking them off as i got bored of them.  My nails were a disgrace!  I had been told about this nail polish by OPI - OPI Sensitive and Peeling Nail Envy nail strengthener, and i have to say that it has helped my paper thin nails start to become a little stronger.  I'm not trying to grow them at the moment, just keeping them short and neat.  I just want to build up their condiation.

OPI says: OPI Sensitive and Peeling Nail Envy nail strengthener is a Formaldehyde-free formula that protects against peeling with antioxidant vitamin E and kukui nut oil, soothes sensitive nails with aloe vera.

I purchased from Boots, it was quite pricey at £18.65 but i suppose you get what you pay for! And cheaper than a manicure!


I also bought the OPI Avoplex Nail and Cuticle Replenishing.  As Winter approaches, you need to start looking after the skin around your nails.  In the above picture you can see i had a sore bit from picking on my middle finger, and 2 days after using the oil, it was gone.  Its quite a greasy oil, but i like that.  After massaging my nails and cuticles, I rubbed the excess into my hands, and it conditions really well.

OPI says: OPI Avoplex Nail and Cuticle Replenishing Oil hydrates and replenishes, restoring moisture and lipids to nails and cuticles.

Priced at £16.50 from Boots.


I do need to start the treatment again though.  I moved house at the weekend, and they are in bad condition again, but i'm sure that of a week of using the above treatments, but nails and hands will be i shipshape condition again.

Dont be afraid of the price, the oils will probably last for years!
